Multicluster and multicloud Kubernetes brings new challenges
Organizations need to deliver innovative applications to fuel growth and success, but are challenged
with the balance of growing the business to keep pace with rising customer expectations while optimiz-
ing costs and resources. As organizations expand their initial investments in Kubernetes and containers—
beyond one or two clusters—and shift the entire software development process to the new platform,
they need to rethink how to manage and protect the environment. In fact, 29% of enterprises now report
having more than 10 Kubernetes clusters in production, and 74% have DevSecOps initiatives focused on
modernizing the application process.
Product overview
Red Hat® OpenShift® Platform Plus, as part of the Red Hat OpenShift portfolio, provides a single
hybrid-cloud platform for enterprises to build, deploy, run, manage, automate, and safeguard intelligent
applications at scale. Building on Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform, a solution trusted by global,
industry-leading companies, OpenShift Platform Plus delivers an enterprise Kubernetes system for
migrating existing workloads to the cloud or building new digital user experiences or deploying applica-
tions to edge locations.
With OpenShift Platform Plus, business leaders can deliver exceptional experiences without compro-
mising quality or security. Development teams can build with speed, agility, confidence, and a choice of
languages and frameworks. IT operations and security teams can support every application across infra-
structures and clouds, with comprehensive security and cluster data management services following a
DevSecOps approach that enhances developer productivity while minimizing risk. OpenShift Platform
Plus changes how organizations undertake digital transformation journeys by helping customers deliver
applications with increased speed, grow their business, and stay competitive.
OpenShift Platform Plus is deployed and managed by enterprise IT operations teams. The full portfolio
includes several integrated technology solutions.
 Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform is a complete set of services that helps developers code
applications with speed while providing flexibility and efficiency for IT operations teams. It includes
multiple advanced open source capabilities that are tested and integrated with the underlying certi-
fied Kubernetes environment, such as Red Hat OpenShift Serverless, Red Hat OpenShift Pipelines,
and Red Hat OpenShift GitOps.
 Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security for Kubernetes provides Kubernetes-native security to
enhance infrastructure and workload security through the entire application life cycle across clusters
whether they are running in a datacenter, in a cloud environment, or at edge locations.

  Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes provides end-to-end management
visibility and control of your cluster and application life cycle, along with improved security and com-
pliance of your entire multicluster Kubernetes domain across multiple datacenters and public clouds.

 Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation offers a cluster data management services layer that pro-
vides the full set of Kubernetes storage classes on any infrustructure, enhanced data resilience, and
added security for Red Hat OpenShift environments. This cluster data management services layer
can be used on top of existing block-based storage resources to provide extended and enriched
services. Customers who need expanded data management and disaster recovery can upgrade to
OpenShift Data Foundation Advanced.

 Red Hat Quay is a security-enhanced private registry platform for managing content across global
datacenter and cloud environments, focusing on cloud-native and DevSecOps development models
and environments.

Benefits

 Consistent user experience, management, and safety across hybrid infrastructure: Provides
a consistent and uniform interface for administrators and developers, regardless of underlying infra-
structure specifics—on-premise, in cloud environments, or at edge locations. As a result, teams can
focus on innovation and deploy applications across mixed infrastructures more efficiently.

 Comprehensive tools for cloud-native application development: Includes the components

you need to build, deploy, run, and safeguard your applications and data, or you can continue to use
your existing tools, integrated with Red Hat OpenShift.

 Built-in security across the entire application life cycle: Extends Red Hat OpenShift’s already
robust focus on security and compliance capabilities with additional tools and capabilities for organi-
zations that have unique, complex security requirements that vary across applications.

 End-to-end management and observability: Applies consistent operational policies for im-
proved security, configuration, compliance, and governance of Kubernetes clusters across on-prem-
ise and cloud infrastructures.
